I do not agree with your cardiologist that you should go to a psychiatrist. I believe that palpitations are to be addressed as a problem even when no pathological reason related to heart has been found. If you're having palpitations it basically means that you have an undue awareness of your heart beat. Lot of these problems have to do with stress undoubtably. But leaving them to be tackled only as stress may have its own shortcomings. I would advise you to 1st cut down on intake of caffeine which we take in the form of tea coffee and cola drinks. Also ensure that you are taking a good nights sleep. Keeping yourself involved in stress bustingactivities would also ensure the relief of anxiety which causes increase in heart rate. Hope this helps you. Regards.

Are you walking or exercising? are your bowels clear? if your stomach feels heavy before meals, why then are you eating? you are overloading your system - don' t eat if you are already feeling heavy. In any case start having several small meals, and miss out if you are not hungry. There is no reason to stuff yourself just because it is habit or convention. Remember at 57 your system has slowed down and you have to alter your eating habit to match this. Contact for homeopathic support.
